Carnoustie, Scotland: A dedicated Instagram channel and brand new blog are charting the progress of a major irrigation installation taking place on the historic Championship Course at Carnoustie Golf Links.

Installation highlights, major milestones and the day-to-day experiences of the greenkeeping team and expert project partners are being featured by Carnoustie on Instagram at carnoustie.rainbird.

Links Superintendent Kevin Stott and Irrigation Technician Stephen Sutherland are giving followers a unique, behind-the-scenes view of the renovation process in images and video, providing an account of the work involved as it happens.

In addition, subscribers to Rain Bird Golf’s global 360 e-newsletter can gain further insights from a brand new project blog, along with the latest product news and global irrigation insights.

The Rain Bird IC System with new CirrusPRO software was designed by Adrian Mortram and is being installed by MJ Abbott.

When fully operational, the Project will deliver the ultimate in control technology and irrigation efficiency to align with Carnoustie Golf Links’ carbon net zero ambition.

Rain Bird is an Executive Member of the Asian Golf Industry Federation.
